Reports <code>public</code> constructors of <code>abstract</code> classes.
<p>
  Constructors of <code>abstract</code> classes can only be called from the constructors of
  their subclasses, declaring them <code>public</code> may be confusing.
</p>
<p>The quick-fix makes such constructors protected.</p>
<p><b>Example:</b></p>
<pre><code>
  <b>public abstract class</b> Foo {
    <b>public</b> Foo () { // warning: has 'public' modifier
        /* ... */
    }
  }
</code></pre>
<p>After the quick-fix is applied:</p>
<pre><code>
  <b>public abstract class</b> Foo {
    <b>protected</b> Foo () {
        /* ... */
    }
  }
</code></pre>
<!-- tooltip end -->
<p>Configure the inspection:</p>
<p>Use the <b>Ignore for non-public classes</b> option below to ignore <code>public</code> constructors in non-public classes.</p>
